Remote care and therapeutic methods
Draughn offers online sessions using video, phone calls, live chat, and text-based messaging to connect with people across Texas. Her remote work is presented as an extension of the same integrative approach she uses in person, structured to allow collaborative planning and skills practice between meetings.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical strategies for mood, anxiety, and relapse prevention. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy provides skills-based training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when intense emotions or relationship patterns interfere with daily life. Trauma-Informed Care shapes the overall pace and attention to safety when working with histories of abuse or overwhelming events. These methods are combined to match individual needs and priorities, with the clinician and the person served deciding together which techniques to emphasize.
Sessions via video, phone, chat, or text-based messaging are organized to support ongoing skill-building, problem-solving, and the collaborative development of goals.
